Somehow I seem to have passed some adult milestone that includes spring cleaning.. Yeah, we have cleaning ladies so I don't do much cleaning honestly. They get most things great- but they don't do the deep stuff, and neither do I! For whatever reason I have become obsessed with "spring" cleaning. I got a little nutso today- I dismantled both chandeliers and washed the glass bowls by hand.
I scrubbed baseboards with a toothbrush, magic eraser, and a sponge. Too bad they still have so many scuffs!
I removed return air vents and washed them by hand and vacuumed the space behind.
I dusted and scrubbed finger prints, crayons, and dirt off walls and doors.
I still have SO MUCH left, but I'm tired. The thing about this kind of cleaning is this: I just spent 4 hours of my life obsessively scrubbing things that NO ONE will notice I cleaned. On one hand, it feels amazing to know the little things are clean and sparkly. On the other hand it feels like a colossal waste of a day. I'm trying to break it all up into different days. I want to get all of my kitchen cabinets wiped clean at some point and the fridge cleaned out. I didn't do the living room yet, and I haven't touched the upstairs! ;-/ What do you think- is it worth it?
